immense catalogue of samples and songs sought

May 29, 2002 8:54 PM

Missing link. There once was an amazingly comprehensive website called Encyclopedia Breakanica (or some variation thereof), but a search on good ole Google just redirects me to Brittanica. The beauty of the site was the immense (and searchable) catalogue of samples and the songs in which they were used. I think it was even mentioned on MF in the last year or so.

If it has moved, has anyone seen it? If it is gone, I will sorely miss it...

Building internet intuition.

Also of note (since the sample faq has taken down their sound files) is beats and breaks. They have over 450 original breaks that you can listen to.
